Deactivate LabVIEW License to Use Elsewhere

Good morning,
My company has a number of license for the LabVIEW Professional Development System and LabVIEW Application Builder. I used the LV Prof. Development System to create the program I needed on a PXI Chassis. I then built an application and installer. I then completely removed all NI software from the PXI and just used the installer to reinstall the necessary files for the application. I went into the LV License Manager and it just says that I have no licenses installed on the PXI.
Everything works, but I want to make sure that the license I had previously used for the LV Prof. Development System is now available for another computer, since I'm no longer using it on this one.
Thank you in advance,
Ben B.

Did you deactivate the licence on the NI Licence manager before uninstalling? If you didn't then the NI licencing server still thinks you are using the PXI box. Give your local NI office a call and they'll sort it out for you.

How do you deactivate a license on a failed computer?

I have a computer that suffered a hardware failure that has a licensed copy of LabVIEW 8.6. I would like to deactivated that machine and install the software on another working machine. How do I do that?
Solved!

Hello Zia,
You can use NI's License Manager software to deactivate a license.
Open License Manager, found in the National Instruments startup directory.
Expand the tree on the left hand side to expose the item you wish to deactivate.
Right click, and deactivate.
*edit* In the case of hardware that has failed, you should be able to just go ahead and re-license on a new machine. However it couldn't hurt to send an email to NI Support indicating that you have done so.

How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed?

How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed? I cannot use the software on my new computer because of too many users.

Will you please provide a specific telephone number or chat link? I seem to be in a loop, that gets me back to the same place:
I click on your above link ...
Then Deactivation and sign-out problems
Then Error "Activation limit reached" or "Sign in failed" | Adobe products
Then Can't access your previous computer?
Then "Don't have access to the previous computer on which you installed the application?Contact us. Be sure to have any purchase-related information ready."
"Contact Us" takes me back to "Need help?", which eventually directs me to this forum in the first place.
Thanks you.

Issues with labview on TestStand deployment system (wont run without a labview License)

I am trying to deploy a system using testStand to a deployment machine for the 1st time. I have built my installer and image files etc.The files install successfully on the target machine however when I try and run my program in TestStand operator mode I have getting errors relating to Labview. The only way I can get around these error is to activate a Labview License on the deployment machine, this is not viable.
The error I see when I disable my Labview License simply states an error occurred accessing the Labview ActiveX automation server.
I have included the run time engines etc in my installer. As this is my first build is there something obvious I have missed here??
Thanks for any input.

Vinny,
my first guess is that the setting for the LV adapter on the deployment machine is still configured for "LabVIEW Development Environment". You have to change this to "Runtime Engine".
hope this helps,

Are LabView licenses for Windows transferrable to Mac OS X?

I can't seem to find any information on this subject on the National Instruments or in a search on this forum, so hopefully someone can answer these questions.
My lab has 3 licenses for the use of LabView 8.5 in our lab, although the instructions that I've been given to install LabView involve downloading the trial software from National Instruments' website, and then using the activation code to activate the software. Trouble is, the trial software is for Windows only, and I was hoping to be able to run LabView on the Mac in our lab.
Are the licenses for LabView transferrable across platforms, or does my lab need to specifically purchase a version of LabView for the Mac? If the licenses *are* transferrable, how do I request a CD for the Mac installers if we've already purchased LabView for Windows? Furthermore, if I'm able to use these licenses on a Mac, is it possible to install the Windows version on my Mac on my Boot Camp partition, and install the Mac version on my Mac OS X partition and only use up one license? I'm not sure if all of our hardware has drivers that will run under Mac OS X on an Intel Mac, and I don't want to be penalized for this by having to use up two licenses on the same machine.
Any answers to these questions would be much appreciated.

Hi SimX,
The LabVIEW licenses are not transferrable directly, since LabVIEW for Windows and LabVIEW for Mac are entirely different products and have different installers.
In this case, you should contact your local sales representative to see what your options are. You can find the email contact information at http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nicc.call_me?p_lang_id=us, or call in to 866-ASK-MYNI (866-275-6964).

How many LabVIEW licenses out there?

This Q isn't of a technical nature; but I'm searching for reasons for my superiors to support my effort in creating a LV solution for our device. The bean counters need to count their (potential) beans.
Does anybody have a ballpark idea about how many LabView licenses are out there? I realize this is a big number, but what order of magnitude?
I realize that universities are big users.. would you say that MOST schools use LV in some capacity?
In industry: What industries?
If you can help me with this, then I can go back to being a software weenie and take off this ill-fitted marketing hat. Then I'll start pelting you with tech Qs.
Thanks-
Suz.

LabVIEW is everywhere!
I am not sure if the total number of LabVIEW developers is public information, a better number would probably be the market share in test/measurement/instrument control, etc. software. Another number would be the count of deployed system with LabVIEW under the hood or used in development. This is probably also rapidly growing, especially counting FPGA and embedded systems.
Have a look at figures 1&2 from this article. It shows LabVIEW way ahead at 32% long ago (Q1 2004). There are probably newer numbers available somewhere.
Just wait a few years until all the particiants of FIRST enter the job market and things will really start rolling exponentially.

Trial Programs Included With Orders
We may include additional programs with an order which may be used for trial purposes only. You will have 30 days from the delivery date to evaluate these programs.

Nothing in this agreement shall be construed to limit either party's right to independently develop or distribute software that is functionally similar to the other party's products, so long as proprietary information of the other party is not included in such software.
Open Source
"Open Source" software - software available without charge for use, modification and distribution - is often licensed under terms that require the user to make the user's modifications to the Open Source software or any software that the user 'combines' with the Open Source software freely available in source code form. If you use Open Source software in conjunction with the programs, you must ensure that your use does not: (i) create, or purport to create, obligations of us with respect to the Oracle programs; or (ii) grant, or purport to grant, to any third party any rights to or immunities under our intellectual property or proprietary rights in the Oracle programs. For example, you may not develop a software program using an Oracle program and an Open Source program where such use results in a program file(s) that contains code from both the Oracle program and the Open Source program (including without limitation libraries) if the Open Source program is licensed under a license that requires any "modifications" be made freely available. You also may not combine the Oracle program with programs licensed under the GNU General Public License ("GPL") in any manner that could cause, or could be interpreted or asserted to cause, the Oracle program or any modifications thereto to become subject to the terms of the GPL.
Third Party Technology
The Programs may contain third party technology. We may provide certain notices to you in program documentation or otherwise in connection with such third party technology. If you are permitted to distribute a Program, you agree to include with the distribution all such notices and any associated source code for third party technology as specified, in the form and to the extent such source code is provided by us. For clarity, the existence of a notice does not affect the terms under which third party technology is licensed to you.
Third party technology will be licensed to you either under the terms of this agreement, or, if specified in the program documentation, readme files or otherwise in writing, under separate license terms ("Separate Terms") and not under the terms of this agreement ("Separately Licensed Third Party Technology"). Your rights to use such Separately Licensed Third Party Technology under the Separate Terms are not restricted or modified in any way by this agreement.
Entire Agreement
You agree that this agreement is the complete agreement for the programs and licenses, and this agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements or representations. If any term of this agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective.

which is different from http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/license.112/e18068/toc.htm#BABHFGHA regarding production or commercial purposes.

At first sight, I was surprised too, but after reading both terms thoroughly I came to the same conclusion that orafad posted above: The text you posted is entitled Oracle Technology Network Early Adopter License Terms. Of course, EA-Terms are different from the ones for the production release. To illustrate the example with software from another company: It was possible to download betas of Microsoft Windows "for free", but it was just for evaluation, testing and "early adopting" purposes, not for productive use. Similar rules apply here. The final release will definetly not be published with that EA License. Oracle has published a draft of the final terms so you get an idea of what you'll be allowed to do with the software you evaluate when it will be released.

In R12, do we need to have CRM suit license to use Dunning letter feature in Financial Track.

Hi, we are with R 12.1.3 and using Full financials and SCM but not CRM suit.
Now wanted to configure Dunning letters and as this is now moved to Advance Collections Module, in the process of setting up this, I used CRM Resource manager, Telesales Agent, etc seeded responsibilities.
Is it required for me to procure the License for CRM suit also, as we do not use Oracle CRM track at our site. Please advise.

Hallo Eddy,
Thanks for the fast reply. But it is still not completely clear for me.
I have read the Licensing Guide of SBO but I still don't know what we have to do. We are an ISV and make add-ons. We are making an application where an operator in the warehouse can enter a delivery note to the system. This application is using DI API.
According to what I can read in the licensing guide we need an add-on solution license. How do we get this for our application? How much does this costs?
What does a customer has to buy from SAP if he has 2 users working with the application of SAP and 10 users that use an application that uses DI API? Is this 2 professional users licenses for x EUR and a license to use add-ons for x EUR?
Thanks in advance for the reply

Jeffrey

Does anyone know how to display (in LabVIEW) the memory use during execution of an image and data acquisition VI to predict when it is time to cease the acquisition to prevent the program crashing?

Does anyone know how to display (in LabVIEW) the memory use during execution of an image and data acquisition VI to predict when it is time to cease the acquisition to prevent the program crashing?
I am acquiring images and data to a buffer on the edge of the while loop, and am finding that the crashing of the program is unpredictable, but almost always due to a memory saturation when the buffers gets too big.
I have attached the VI.

I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?
